Chapter 172 Meeting Li Hai
A week later, in the living room of the villa.
Yu Xiang, like a lazy cat, leaned comfortably against the soft sofa, with Mimi sleeping soundly on her lap.
She was holding a list that Bai Chi had just sent her, and was carefully flipping through it.
"The base's publicity is really effective; the number of humans and zombies joining the base has increased quite a bit recently."
Yuka muttered to herself as she looked at the list.
Suddenly, her gaze settled on a name. "Huh? What's he doing at Peach Blossom Base?"
At first, she thought it was someone with the same name, but when she saw the photo attached to the list, she instantly realized that it was the person she knew—Li Hai.
At this moment, Qin Zhuo walked over with a cup of Corpse Fruit Tea with ice cubes.
He handed the fruit tea to Youxiang and casually asked, "Who are you talking about?"
Yu Xiang took the cup with one hand, put the straw in her mouth, and took a gentle sip. The icy-cool fruit tea flowed down her throat and into her stomach.
She squinted her eyes with satisfaction and handed Li Hai's information to Qin Zhuo.
"Take a look for yourself, you know them too."
Qin Zhuo took the documents and read them carefully. After reading them, he frowned slightly and said in confusion, "Did something happen at the Bright Base? Otherwise, why would he suddenly come to the Peach Blossom Base?"
Yu Xiang swallowed the fruit tea in her mouth, looking thoughtful. "Something must have happened. I'll ask him when the time comes."
Qin Zhuo sat down next to Youxiang. "Back then, I was really fortunate to have had him, otherwise I might have really died."
Although he had already fainted and was on the verge of death, he could still vaguely hear Li Hai's voice.
Yu Xiang took another sip of fruit tea and nodded in agreement, "Yes, we should thank them properly."
Qiao Yue, who had been playing Dou Dizhu (a card game) on the sidelines, finished a round, looked up, and asked You Xiang with a curious expression, "You two have been talking about this and that for so long, but who are they? You didn't even say their names."
Yu Xiang smiled and said, "It's Li Hai."
Qiao Yue: "Oh, it's him. He's come to our base too. That's great, we have another acquaintance."
Yuxiang put down her cup and asked, "Yueyue, why didn't you go up the mountain with Yan Yan today?"
Qiao Yan now goes up the mountain every day to help the base with planting matters.
As a plant-based individual, she has a unique advantage in this regard, making her very suitable.
Qiao Yue put down her tablet, picked up an orange from the coffee table, and peeled it slowly as she said, "With Chen Yunfei here, I won't join in the fun. I don't know what's wrong with Chen Yunfei. He used to deliberately avoid my sister, but he's stopped doing it recently. It's really puzzling."
Yu Xiang tilted her head slightly and glanced at Qin Zhuo.
I feel Zhuozhuo will know.
Qin Zhuo understood and the corners of his mouth turned up slightly. "Yunfei must have figured something out. Once you understand something, your attitude will naturally change."
It seems that Yunfei did heed what he said earlier.
It turns out that Chen Yunfei and Qiao Yan had sat down and had a proper talk about their relationship.
The two opened up to each other and finally reached a consensus, deciding to let everything take its natural course.
Just as the group was chatting, Bronson suddenly walked over.
He bowed slightly and said respectfully, "Miss, there is a gentleman outside looking for you."
Yuka looked at Bronson and asked, "Is the one looking for me a zombie or a human? What's their name?"
Bronson answered truthfully: "He's a human being, and he said his name is Li Hai."
Upon hearing this, Yu Xiang was slightly taken aback, a hint of surprise flashing across her face.
I was just wondering when to call Li Hai over to ask about the situation, but I didn't expect him to come to me first.
"Butler, please invite him in."
Bronson nodded and replied, "Yes, miss."
After a while, Bronson led Li Hai in.
Mimi, who was sleeping soundly on Youxiang's lap, groggily opened her eyes, glanced at Li Hai, and then, seemingly feeling that it had nothing to do with her, lazily closed her eyes again to continue her sweet dream.
Li Hai spotted Qin Zhuo, who was still alive, at a glance. His eyes lit up with excitement, and he quickly walked up to him, his voice trembling slightly.
"You're still alive, that's...that's so good!"
Qin Zhuo stood up and gently patted Li Hai's shoulder. "That's all thanks to you. If it weren't for you, I probably would be dead."
Li Hai scratched his head somewhat embarrassedly, "Actually, I didn't do anything back then. I even helped the lord hunt you down. Thinking about it now, I really feel bad for you."
Qin Zhuo waved his hand, "But it was also because of you that I was given a chance to live. If someone else had found out I wasn't dead, they would have reported it to the lord long ago, so I still want to thank you."
"Alright, stop standing, everyone sit down and let's talk."
Yu Xiang waved enthusiastically, inviting Li Hai to sit down, then turned to instruct the butler, Bronson, "Butler, serve Li Hai tea."
Qiao Yue also came over enthusiastically, took an orange from the coffee table, stuffed it into Li Hai's hand, and said with a smile, "Have an orange, this orange is very sweet and delicious."
Li Hai held the orange, a genuine smile on his face. "Thank you."
He paused for a moment, then continued, "I really didn't expect that Little Yuzu could build a base, and that it would be so well-constructed, truly deserving of its name, Shangri-La. Little Yuzu, you are really amazing!"
Upon hearing the praise, Yu Xiang's lips unconsciously curled up, but she waved her hand and said, "It's just so-so, not as amazing as you say."
“Little Yuzu has always been wonderful.” Qin Zhuo said, looking at Youxiang, and naturally took her hand, holding it tightly in his palm.
Looking at Qin Zhuo and Youxiang's tightly clasped hands, Li Hai couldn't help but ask, "Are you two together?"
Qin Zhuo smiled and raised their clasped hands. "Yes."
Li Hai sincerely said, "Congratulations! You two are finally united in marriage."
Qin Zhuo gently squeezed Youxiang's hand, then looked at Li Hai, "Why are you here? Did something happen to the original base?"
Upon hearing this, Li Hai's smiling face instantly darkened.
He sighed softly and said slowly, "You don't know, the Bright Base is now under Ye Yufan's jurisdiction, and Ye Tian is dead. The base was already in chaos because of the previous high temperature, and this change of power has made it even more chaotic. Everyone is living in fear every day..."
Then, Li Hai took a deep breath and told them everything that had happened at the base after Youxiang and the others left, one by one.
